Moving to New Places

I've been away for a while, (and not as dedicated to agent searching as I should be.) I've been working like crazy to save enough money for my move to Amherst MA at the end of the month.

Over all I'm excited, (and a little nervous) but there's been a lot of questions about why. Why am I leaving? What's the point? Are you going to school? The answer to all of that is, why not? I've been living where I am for years and years. I have two jobs, I work all the time, but my financial situation is stable.


I need to go.

There's no logical explanation. It's all a matter of heart and soul. I feel like I'm a stone sculpture eroding away, and if I were to continue in this state of stasis, I'd loose all touch with life and light.

On a much more positive note, Autumn is finally here! In so many ways fall reminds me, to a much greater extent than spring, of new beginning. The season of the phoenix. The colors blaze in the sunlight and fill me with unimaginable glee, and a warmth contrasted by brisk gusts of wind. It's an end to life's cycle. The time where the old is shed in preparation for a bout of rest and contemplation before spring's nectar draw us from deep slumber to act on our desires. (and pumpkin. Seriously, pumpkin everything. It makes me glade.)

All in all, I feel like my path is aligning with the seasons. I hope all the changes will bring good things, and I wish you all the same.
